In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
and an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand
i�m a long way from home and i miss my loved ones so
in the early morning rain with no place to go
Out on runway number nine big seven-o-seven set to go
but i�m stuck here on the ground where the cold winds blow
you can�t jump on a jet plane like you can a freight train
so i�d best be on my way in the early morning rain
Hear the mighty engines roar see the silver bird on high
she�s away and westward bound far above my home she�ll fly
where the morning rain don�t fall and the sun always shines
she�ll be flying next my home in about three hours time
In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
and an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand
i�m a long way from home and i miss my loved ones so
in the early morning rain with no place to go
in the early morning rain with no place to go
